Penalty Bokke…. slot it Morné!
Ozzie backline offsides all the time….okaayyyyy, penalty!!!
Springboks 3 / 0 Wallabies
Looking good
Pragtig Morne
Forward pass by the Wallas
Wallabies looking dangerous while Boks persist in skop en jag, kicking flokken possession away, my flokken magtig man!!
Well so far, we don’t seem to have learn’t a lot from Mendoza, hope it’s just nerves, or I am going to start getting hyper critical!
Come on Bokke, scrum them, man!
Solid scrum….
Free Kick Bokke, from the Aussie lineout
Two ultra-kak looking sides playing each other at the moment
Lekker kick Crusty!
Oz making all the play so far while Boks are happy just to give possession back to them at every opportunity.
Goeie skop Kirsner.
H
Is that Morne in trouble? Early start for Goosen, perhaps?
@ Gobble_BokJan:
Bokke must play Griqua rugby, keep the ball in hand and run at them, then off-loading in the tackles, me thinks…
No, he’s recovered
Good covering by Pienaar… and a great touchfinder
Wallabies making ground with ball in hand and breaking tackles. Just a matter of time before they score at this rate.
Come on Bokke, drive from this lineout…..
Why are the Boks not putting pressure on Cooper?
Fark, just play the BALL, stop trying to be clever
Wallas counter-ruck us off the ball, penalty… eish
What an awful mess at the rucks. Giving possession back to the Wallabies.
WTF Pienaar, kicking the ball back into the maul!
Penalty Wallabies, right in front
Springboks 3 / 3 Wallabies
Boks don’t even look like they will get over the advantage line, little own get over the try line. Blatant lying on the wrong side in front of the posts – who teaches these guys???????????
Matter of time….there it is, penalty, Ozzie using the ball well.
